To switch on one of the burners:
1. Turn the relevant control knob anticlockwise
until the indicator is at the maximum flame
symbol .
2. Press the control knob to ignite the burner.
3. Once the burner has lit, hold the control knob
down for approx. 5 seconds to allow the safety
thermocouple fitted to the burner to engage.
The thermocouple will cut off the gas supply
to the burner if the flame goes out accidentally
(e.g. due to a gust of air, momentary
interruption of the gas supply or liquid
spillage).
To switch on the professional burner:
1. To switch on both rings at the same time, turn
the control knob anticlockwise to the outer
ring/inner ring maximum flame symbol, then
press the control knob to ignite the burner.
2. To keep only the inner ring lit, press the
control knob and turn it anticlockwise to the
inner ring maximum flame/outer flame
switched off symbol.
If the burner does not ignite within approx. 15
seconds, switch off the burner and check that
the burner cap and plate are fitted correctly.
Wait at least 1 minute before trying again.
If the burner goes out when you release the
control knob, this means that the
thermocouple did not engage. Wait at least 1
minute before repeating steps 1 to 3.

Read these instructions to get the best out of
your hob.
- Use pans with a similar diameter to the burner
(see the table on this page)
- Use flat-bottomed pans unless using the wok
support.
- Do not use an excessive quantity of water
when cooking and always put the lid on the
saucepan.
- Make sure that pans are fully supported by the
pan supports and do not protrude over the
edges.
You should never use:
- Cast iron pots and pans, soapstone griddles or
terracotta dishes, as these may damage the
pan supports.
- Metal grids or other items that convect heat.
- Two burners at the same time with just one
item of cookware on top, e.g. a fish kettle.
Important:
Do not place the pan supports upside down on
the hob or drag them across its surface as this
may scratch it.
Failure to observe these recommendations
could result in the glass on your ceramic hob
being damaged or broken and the safety of
your appliance being compromised.

Regulating the minimum flow level of the gas taps
Replacing the injectors in the wok burner
Disconnect the hob from power supply and
wait until it is cold before carrying out
cleaning and/or maintenance work.
To keep the hob in perfect condition, clean it to
remove any food residue after every use.
Cleaning the hob:
- Clean the surfaces of the hob with lukewarm
water and/or a neutral detergent, then rinse
and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth or
chamois leather.
- Prolonged contact with hard water or aggressive
detergents could corrode or stain the stainless-
steel surfaces. Detergents containing chlorine,
chlorine composites or ammonia and
detergents with a high acid content will cause
irreparable damage to the hob. Please read the
product label to make sure that the product is
suitable before using it.
- Do allow acidic or alkaline substances, such as
vinegar, mustard, salt or lemon juice, to come
into contact with the hob for prolonged
periods.
- It is advisable to wipe away any spills (water,
sauce, coffee, etc.) immediately.
- Do not use abrasive cleaning products and pan
scourers.
- Do not use steam cleaners.
- Do not use flammable products.
- All enamelled and glass parts should be cleaned
with warm water and/or a neutral detergent.
The pan supports and burners can be removed to
facilitate cleaning.
1. Hand wash carefully in hot water with a mild
detergent, making sure that all the ingrained
dirt is removed and the openings on the
burner are not blocked. The internal burner
cap (Don page 12) is made of brass and will
burnish naturally when it heats up. Clean it
after every use with a product specifically
designed for brass. Use hot water and a mild
detergent to clean the wok burner's external
cap (Con page 12). Never use abrasive
products or scourers as these will damage the
special surface coatings.
2. Rinse and dry carefully.
3. Refit the burners and caps in the correct places.
4. When refitting the pan supports, make sure
that each pan support is correctly aligned with
each burner.
Note: The ends of the electronic spark plugs and
thermocouples must be cleaned regularly to keep
them in good working order. Please clean them
very carefully with a damp cloth. Any remaining
ingrained food should be removed carefully with
a toothpick.
To avoid damaging the electronic spark plugs,
only use the hob if the burners and pan
supports are in the correct place.
